Tensor products and $q$-characters of HL-modules and monoidal categorifications

Abstract

We study certain monoidal subcategories (introduced by David Hernandez and Bernard Leclerc) of finite--dimensional representations of a quantum affine algebra of type $A$. We classify the set of prime representations in these subcategories and give necessary and sufficient conditions for a tensor product of two prime representations to be irreducible. In the case of a reducible tensor product we describe the prime decomposition of the simple factors. As a consequence we prove that these subcategories are monoidal categorifications of a cluster algebra of type $A$ with coefficients.
